Rhodophiala

The first flower of Rhodophiala bifida is opening today here in zone 7
Maryland. Hurricane Hanna passed nearby during the weekend, and there was
heavy rain in the area.

The plant in question has had a spathe up at ground level for weeks; it
surged into growth only two days ago.

Colchicum are beginning to push up, too.
